While Sorento very capably handles your

everyday demands, it also raises the bar
with a go-anywhere disposition and spirited
performance that makes the journey a real
joy. You have a choice between a 185-hp
2.4L Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) engine
and available 240-hp turbocharged 2.0L GDI
or 290-hp 3.3L GDI V6. To go even further
off the beaten track, Sorento offers the
available DynamaxTM advanced all-wheel-drive
(AWD) system that continuously monitors
driving conditions and makes adjustments
automatically to optimize grip. Go where you
want the way you want in the 2017 Sorento.

DYNAMAXTM ALL-WHEEL DRIVE.

The available DynamaxTM AWD system
uses sensors to monitor road conditions
and driving scenarios. When enhanced
traction and control are required, the
system helps distribute power to the
appropriate wheels and also distributes
torque during acceleration and cornering.

transmission provides
smooth, seamless shifting.
Its Sportmatic function
allows you to choose the
automatic mode or clutchfree manual shifting for
a more controlled driving
experience.

outstanding performance.

impressive fuel efficiency.

Gasoline Direct Injection
(GDI) V6 engine produces

AWARENESS.

OCCUPANT
PROTECTION.

Sorento offers advanced technologies that

help the driver become more aware of
potential hazards around the vehicle
such as available Blind Spot Detection.1
Should an accident prove unavoidable, you
can take comfort in the fact Kia has given
the unthinkable a tremendous amount
of thought. A series of passive safety
systems are designed to help protect
the passenger compartment from a
safety cage design thats fortified with
ultra-high-tension steel to a six-airbag
SRS system. Clearly, the more thought
Kia puts into Sorentos safety, the greater
your peace of mind.

Available SX+ interior

ULTRA-HIGH STRENGTH
Sorento features a uniquely
engineered body that
combines various hightensile strength steel alloys.
The body structure not
only helps provide excellent
crash protection it also
contributes to better
driving dynamics and to the
remarkably quiet ride.

1. SMART CRUISE CONTROL.1

This available system
uses a radar sensor at
the front of the vehicle to
monitor the distance to the
vehicle ahead. To preserve
a predetermined safe
distance, the system will
apply the brakes, reducing
Sorentos speed, until the
vehicle ahead proceeds.

2. 3600 CAMERA
MONITORING SYSTEM.1
The available 3600 camera
monitoring system utilizes
four cameras, located at
the front, rear, and sides, to
provide visibility all around
the vehicle. This helps
enhance the drivers view
when maneuvering into
parking spaces.

3. BLIND SPOT
DETECTION (BSD).1
This available system uses
radar sensors to monitor
approaching vehicles
from the rear in the lanes
flanking the driver. If a
vehicle is detected, a
visual alert appears on
the sideview mirrors.

4. REAR PARKING
SONARS.1
A sonar system is
concealed in the rear
bumper. When you back
up, an audible warning
is given if the system
detects objects behind
your vehicle.
